The Poultry Science Association (PSA) announced the purchase of European Poultry Science from Eugen Ulmer Publishing House of Stuttgart, Germany.
The journal joins PSA’s family of leading international research properties, including its flagship title, Poultry Science, and the applied journal, The Journal of Applied Poultry Research.
The journal will become an Open Access Gold publication, making research published in European Poultry Science freely available upon publication. It will soon be available online via ScienceDirect as part of the PSA’s partnership with global academic research publisher Elsevier.
“PSA recognizes the importance and significance of the European Poultry Science collection,” said Martin Zuidhof, PSA president. “We are excited and honored to offer this quality publishing option to poultry scientists around the world.”
For nearly 90 years, European Poultry Science has published original scientific papers, critical reviews and research reports in poultry science.
“We are excited that PSA will move our journal into the Open Access era,” said Michael Grashorn, apl. Prof. Dr. sc. agr. habil, German Association of Poultry Science president and professor at the Institute of Animal Sciences at the University of Hohenheim. “PSA is an internationally respected organization dedicated to providing outlets for sharing and discussing the latest research in the field, and I know the journal is in good hands.”
Editor-in-chief Barbara Tzschentke, PhD, senior researcher at the Institute for Agricultural and Urban Ecological Projects at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Faculty of Life Science, will continue to lead European Poultry Science as part of PSA’s editorial team. She has been the journal’s editor-in-chief since 2018.
“This milestone enhances PSA’s commitment to advancing global poultry science and fostering collaboration across borders,” wrote PSA in a LinkedIn post announcing the acquisition.
